Betty was a very special friend of mine who passed away this past May. I decided to do her portrait for her husband as a Christmas gift. All I can say is that he loved it and so do I.
Jjkky, this is terrific. Bet her husband was overwhelmed. What a special gift.
Thanks Margo! I didn't get much of a chance to proof it. I finished it on a Sat. morning and gave it away Sat. night. This one will be my favorite for quite a while. She was like a mother to me. I talked with him last night and he is still talking about it. She passed away 2 days before their 58th wedding anniversary. Very special friends. Jim
Nice work! Happy Holidays to you!
Hey - just getting to this party, so I thought I'd comment at the one that had fewer comments. Both of these are beautifully rendered and obviously full of personal feeling. Can't wait to see more!
All I can say is WQW!
Thanks Jon, same to you!
Thank you Daniel! It's just a hobby so only do a few drawings a year. It roughly takes me about 100 hours to draw a 19" x 24" portrait, give or take about 20 hours. Thanks for your kind words. BTW, loved your paintings when I visited your profile.
Thanks Jan, greatly appreciated your WOW! It keeps me going!
Jim
